About 25 of the better swimmers work out five days a week from 6 a.m. to 7 a.m. and the rest are divided into four groups that swim three times a week. Two groups work particularly on strokes and two groups mostly do laps and work on conditioning. Coach Bestor feels that team be instilled in these children with less emphasis on earning of awards or beating someone for the sake of beating them or of just getting by or of quitting when the going gets tough. He hopes to teach these children the value of participating, of learning of meeting friends, of doing their best, of growing healthy and strong, of contributing to a team. spirit should I |
